Poetry
A community to celebrate published and OC works of poetry.
Welcome to !poetry
Guidelines & Community Rules
In addition to the general rules of lemmy.world:
Published Poetry
1a: Poetry posts should include the title and the author, when the author is known.
O.C. Poetry
2a: Sharing original poetry is encouraged, but it must be preceded by the tag "[OC]."
2b: If an [OC] post is requesting feedback, it should also follow with the "[FB]" tag. It would look like the following example:
[OC] [FB] Nothing Gold Can Stay
Feedback
All feedback should be given in good faith.
3a: All [FB] requests should be met with comments constructive in nature. It is okay to dislike parts of a poem, but make sure to explain why you feel that way.
3b: Feedback does not need to be extraordinary in nature. Simply expressing how a work makes you feel is often enough.
3c: Use the honor system. When you receive good feedback, return it in kind to another author. Everyone appreciates knowing their work is being read and appreciated.
As this community develops, these guidelines may be adjusted.
Formatting Help
Work in progress
To create a line break, use two spaces at the end of a line.
To create empty space, type .
Use four of these at the beginning of a line to create a standard indent.
UPDATE:
Some methods of access do not format markdown correctly. I am currently testing various apps and web interfaces to see what does and does not retain formatting.
In the interim, it is encouraged to post text poetry as you normally would, but to include a link at the beginning or end of the post with access to a website or image that retains the formatting as intended.
Other Poetry Communities
Poetry lovers unite! In the style of the fediverse, multiple poetry communities have arisen, and will continue to rise. I will try to keep a list here of communities across instances that are worth checking out!

Aliens are going to think our entire planet is an AI company.
It IS a computer! Location on Earth correlates to memeplexic evolution. People wonder how we went past Cain n Abel. There was Angela, at the top. Cain faded to desert. Abel, well, they figured out how to build a nation. And then it did a mitosis and the Red Sea parted, procedurally generating reality based on our choices from then on starting at Israel, and onwards in the same structure as the Kabbalah.
The Earth wasn't the physical system we know it today. The system complexifies into a hierarchy of higher orders based on accumulative choices made in the system; memeplexic-driven decision making. Y'know, fuggin' astrology? Yea, the slight input of light from Superstar Brahma Supreme eight trillion limbo light years away modifies an entanglement in your ass that isn't IN your head but IS your head. Your body is an illusion. The "Earth" is an illusion. You're in a video game. Phenomequalitesselation. You choose your Karma in every moment.
Reconciliation; all sins will be corrected in the end. Hence, why I am calm and happy, for I did the work in life, and I WILL be first so I may be last at the transcendental shitamobob at the end of somewhere. You need three bodies of reference to have contextual meaning in communication. I solved the three body problem. It's sin; möbiation of entanglement. There's something, nothingness, and emptiness as the Buddha said. It's so fucking obvious! I saw it in the MKULTRA document!
MKULTRA IS STAR GATE
